    Don't get ahead of yourself

    What would be really nice at this point is a baserunner!

    So true!

    This game is on my Direct TV for FREE (package baiting,) & I'd STILL rather watch Youtube videos of the Rolling Stones from 1971. :rolleyes:

    That's how interested I am.

    It'll make me that much MORE pissed when they turn it on in August (as always) when they're COMPLETELY out of it.

    1 baserunner through 5 innings, and now we have Bourn/Wandy/Matsui up

    Pretty good chance for 1 baserunner through 6

    I don't think we could beat any AAA teams at this point...except maybe our own. Every damn pitcher we face is an all-star pitcher. It's turning into one hell of a list of pitchers the Astros can't compete against. This team just looks outmatched right now. I dunno if it is mental block or what? These are big league hitters? Really? lol

    Yet another 1-2-3 innings against Cy Lohse. 18 in a row retired

    I was listening to the Cardinals announcers the other night, & they said that the consensus around the league is, is that we have a #1 with three #4's & a #5 in our starting rotation.

    That said, we can't BUY a run.


    All totalled out, kids .. WE SUCK.

    I made a $10 bet with a Pirate fan last Monday, that the Pirates WOULD indeed finish in last place yet again.

    I'm kinda second-guessing myself right about now.

    21 batters in a row retired. Lohse could actually get the perfect 27 straight, only Matsui's single to lead off the game blemishes him.

    This is offensive inpetitude at it's finest guys. The Astros don't do things by half!

    Superb at bat from Pudge there, he got to a 3-0 count!!!

    24 in a row retired. Absolutely ridiculous. This team has given up on the season already

    You just went from "they've given up on the season" to "little bit of hope" after one hit.
